You dump/delete/purge after sending whatever to a DUMMY?

Why not use something else to get rid of those GDGs? Using IDCAMS delete or 
tell your tape management system to delete them?

Do you need to use WAIT(0,0) and FORCECP(0) in this case?

Last suggestion:

Remove that '-' after VSAM)

... so the SYSIN is not part of that FILTER DD *
